A Chicagoesque boutique building, Cavendish House stands in an exclusive pocket of the CBD on the corner of Flinders Lane and Russell Street. Surrounded by scores of designer boutiques, restaurants, art galleries and theatres, it is the prestige lifestyle location for those seeking to live among the city’s vibrant creative heart. Now being offered for sale at auction is a truly rare opportunity for the astute buyer to acquire a delightful penthouse on the top floor of this tightly held address.
The penthouse apartment 10c is south east facing, taking in an astonishing vista that sweeps 180 degrees past the backdrop of the sports precinct – the MCG, the Rod Laver Arena, and the multi purpose football stadium, and the Royal Botanic Gardens – to the foreground of Federation Square and the Arts precinct. All a pleasant walk from Cavendish House. The river and South Bank take the eye out to Hobson’s Bay and the far horizons of the Mornington Peninsula. And from the balcony the view takes in the city from Collins Street down to the Rialto and across to Swanston Street the west. Huge picture windows light the living area and master bedroom. This expansive apartment measuring 84sqm lends itself to easy personalization. Blending elegance with contemporary style it has a generous, well appointed kitchen with a solid granite bench, stainless steel appliances and a walk-in pantry: ideal for the cooking enthusiast and for entertaining.

The large master bedroom has built in robes with a high ceiling and, with the living room, shares direct access to the balcony. The bathroom is fully marbled with walk-in shower. With the generous proportions of its period this apartment has a large study/ 2nd bedroom separated from the rest of the apartment by bi-fold wooden doors. This character-filled apartment with its breathtaking views is perfect as a home at the heart of all that’s cosmopolitan about the city or as a stylish weekend “pied a terre” for entertaining and impressing friends.
